That is some pretty strong company. I know Scheffler has been on fire of late, and Rahm, Dechambeau and Koepka are super players as well, but when he is hitting on all cylinders, like last week, still think Rory is the best player in the world at the moment.
Watching the Phoenix Open. What the hell is Ricky Fowler wearing? He just come back from duck hunting or deer hunting. What a joke. And last week Jason Day had on a pair of extremely baggy gym/tv pants that looked ridiculous. Tour just letting these guys dress however they want? Looks like crap.
Pat Perez hints at a wardrobe change coming to LIV Golf in 2025
One of LIV Golf's many early selling points was that the players would be allowed to wear shorts, something the PGA Tour only conceded...
I enjoy it every time he tees it up. Keep playing.
And he’s got 2 records he still he wants. Another pga tour win 83 which even I’ll admit probably will not happen.
But we still got one more record he wants pretty bad. He’s tied at 9 with Bobby Jones at 9 USGA wins.
Look for Tiger over the next 5 years to try and get that 10th at the SR US OPEN.
Brandel Chamblee tries to clarify his latest comments on LIV Golf with some golf fans agreeing on one aspect
Golf analyst Brandel Chamblee is very much becoming the go-to man on social media when it comes to starting debates over the future of professional golf.
That's sad. Of course, you probably still like watching 100 yr old Ron Jeremy bang.
So the LIV golf winner that I have never heard of wins $4,000.000 for 3 rounds of golf.
The 4 man team winner wins $3,000.000.
Yea those guys are never coming back to the PGA tour unless LIV folds.
Really sad, as it has hurt both products IMO.

And yet with all that he's still a dirtbag and a cheap a$$ that tips like a broke man. Total chump.
I am watching the Phoenix Open and I am telling you these guys take way too damn long to hit a putt. Put ‘em on the clock while on the greens and if the don’t putt within a certain time given , add a stroke as they walk off the green. That will stop that shit. It’s ridiculous.
Recent results indicate that Euros may be a tough out in Ryder Cup at Bethpage this fall. Very hard to win as the visitors, but not impossible. In addition to Rory, and now Detry, Hatton has been playing great on DP and LIV, and don't think you have to worry about Rahm. Plus McIntrye, Lowry, et al, they will have a really strong team.
Interesting. Comments below that reflect ignorance. Play anywhere you want? How about, like any other pro sporting venture, you are part of a league/organization with rules you must abide by. Those rules are to protect that brand, making purses for players more valuable.
The longer this goes, the fewer folks who would be eligible to come back. Even fewer who you would want back, given a lot are past their prime.
No one is missing Talor Gooch, Carlos Ortiz, Joaquin Niemann, etc. and the guys you do miss are really no longer contenders, save Bryson and Brooks.

Agree, sponsors aren't going to put up $10-20M so that top players can play anywhere they want. They need to get something for their sponsorship cash.
Didn’t pay attention to the comments only what Rory said which is more interesting.
Can’t remember when Kentucky winter has been this bad for golf.
I haven't touched a club in 2 months and 13 days.
Golfweek just published the public filings of LIV golf for 2022 and 2023. Revenue increased from $4.9M to $37.1M, but losses in 2022 were $244M and increased to $394M. The magazine estimated that PIF "investment" may grow to $5 BILLION by EOY.
In what world does this make any sense?

Guessing they're hedging that with Jay asking Trump to help out that there is a merger that goes through and LIV becomes more valuable.
I agree, I don't really get this. It seems like people with stupid money just spending it stupidly but Jay has also handled everything terribly and if LIV/PIF get any type of ownership of what PGA Tour gets by way of TV contracts or even influence on the board, it probably ends up being a good investment for PIF.
The PGA Tour believes it has an ally in President Donald Trump when it comes to their negotiations with the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund to reunify men’s pro golf.
A potential merger had been almost ground to a halt by the previous administration’s justice department. The PGA Tour hopes the Trump administration will have a more favorable view of the deal and that the president can help hustle that process along.
Commissioner Jay Monahan and Adam Scott met with Trump last week in Washington, D.C., to discuss the negotiations, and Tiger Woods played golf with the president on Sunday.
Count Rory McIlroy among those who believe Trump can be a useful tool in negotiations. The four-time major winner played golf with Trump before the inauguration and sees the president as an ally to the PGA Tour.
“It was really good,” McIlroy said of his meeting with Trump during his pre-tournament press conference at the Genesis Invitational on Wednesday. “I thought we had a good discussion. I learned that he’s not a fan of the LIV format. I was like, but you’ve hosted their events. He was like, yeah, but it doesn’t mean that I like it. So I think he’s on the Tour’s side.”

Pretty incredible Jay hasn’t been fired yet.
Not to mention younger guys coming into their own. Guys like Tom McKibbin, Vincent Norrman, and a kid I think will be a star, Rasmus Hojgaard. Rasmus, with that name, he can't fail.
.Yeap. Both are very talented, in their early 20's, bright future for both. I watch a ton of DP Tour tournaments (the early morning starts US time helps), I see a bunch of young talent on the tour. Future is bright for the European side. But guys like Maverick McNeely on the US side are doing well also.
